As a huge fan of Fitzgerald’s original work, I think that this is a great adaptation of the novel. Of course, there are limitations when adapting a full-length work to a graphic form, but K. Woodman-Maynard used her love for the work itself to bring to life the same imagery and the theme of ‘money can’t buy you happiness.’
